    Chronic Illness Warrior, Health Coach and Author, Amy Kurtz Talks “Kicking Sick” and Patient Advocacy

    Amy Kurtz is the author of the trailblazing book Kicking Sick: Your GO TO GUIDE for Thriving with Chronic Health Conditions, a health and wellness coach, patient advocate, and speaker. She has been a recurrent guest on Good Morning America. Endorsed by Dr. Mark Hyman and Kris Carr, Kicking Sick was listed as Lena Dunham's "top ten desert island picks of all time” in New York Magazine. Amy’s lifelong Chronic Health Conditions – from Celiac Disease to major parasite infections to a thyroid condition– led her on an intense journey through doctors’ offices, medical clinics, IV labs, specialist offices and assorted spiritual communities. Through these experiences – the trials and the errors, Amy learned the importance of identifying her individual needs and putting a team together to support the whole of her body/mind and spirit. Now, she supports her clients in finding the right system so they can focus on healing instead of having to always focus on care management.

    Steven Petrow Talks Finding Joy in Grief and His Book: The Joy You Make

    In 2017, Award-winning Washington Post columnist, Steven Petrow experienced one of the worst years of his life. He lost both his parents, separated from his husband, and learned that his sister had meta-static cancer.  He began to question: how can one find joy during incredibly difficult times?  He discovered that joy is not only around us, but within us.  He examines this and so much more in his book THE JOY YOU MAKE: Find the Silver Linings--Even on Your Darkest Days, released this September.  He explores the many expressions of joy and shows readers how to find, cultivate, and share it. Combining his personal experiences with research and expert interviews, Petrow asks (and answers) the question: “What if there was a way to find the joy in everything?” In today’s episode, we discuss how the connection between joy and grief are inseparable, and Steven offers  practical, prescriptive advice to find the joy around us. We think this is a perfect episode and book for any season of life, but especially the upcoming holiday season – and hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did!  As a special offer for Courageous Wellness listeners, you can get 30% off your first order!

    Fighting Seasonal Blues, Embracing Dark Months and Learning How to Winter with Kari Leibowitz

    On this episode, we welcome psychologist and winter expert Kari Leibowitz who is the author of the  new book: ‘HOW TO WINTER: Harness Your Mindset to Thrive on Cold, Dark, or Difficult Days.’ Kari uses mindset science to help readers embrace winter as a season to be enjoyed, not endured and in turn, learn powerful lessons that can impact our mental well-being throughout the year.  Inspired by cutting-edge psychological and behavioral science research, HOW TO WINTER provides readers with concrete tools for making winter wonderful wherever you live and harnessing the power of small mindset changes with big impact to help embrace every season of life. In this episode, Kari discusses an overview of what seasonal affective disorder is and isn't - what to look out for, and what to do if you simply have the "winter blues.” She shares how people can embrace the clock change in the fall, take advantage of darkness, and celebrate the beginning of winter. She also shares specific actions people can take to get ready for winter physically and how to refresh your home for winter comfort and joy. We found this conversation really helpful as we enter the darker months and hope you gain as much from the conversation as we did. This episode is brought to you by Birch Living.
